I watched these two movies today. About time I watch stuff again, after all I have a challenge to win, right? 8D

The first movie of 20th Century Boys was pretty close to the original manga (wiki), hence really cool. A few nuances of the story got lost though, but still can’t wait to see the other two movies. Well, you should watch it, it’s definitely worth it…if you have more than 2 hours you should read the manga, too. Urasawa Naoki sure is one of the best story tellers ever.
For some reason I feel like I should mention that I wanted to give Sadakiyo (he’s only mentioned in the first movie, he’ll start showing up in the other two movies) a major hug every time he appeared in the manga. Seriously, boy needs a lot of love!

The second movie I watched was Mushishi. First of all, the subs were crap, seriously, a LOT of mistakes. It sucks cause I automatically start focusing on the awfulness and can’t concentrate on the movie properly anymore. Well, it’s not a must see anyway. I kinda felt that the whole calmness and feeling that made the manga and anime (wiki) work were lost. Also, nothing against Odagiri Joe, but he didn’t display Ginko too well, at least in my eyes that is. He seemed to hesitant and unsure, that’s just not Ginko to me. Not that Ginko always knows what he’s doing, but he’s not afraid to try and fail.

So in conclusion 20the Century Boys is always worth it, in manga or movie form, while for Mushishi you should stick with anime and manga.

Tomorrow I’m gonna go see Slumdog Millionair with my sis. I know, talk about late
